CN2 came to our class on Thursday to find out more about the holiday cards we have been making for the troops! We are so proud of our students! They have learend so much about people in the military and what it means to give to others. Check out the video below from CN2!

The Elf on the Shelf tradition is really helping the students write great narratives during Writing Workshop! We have an elf who is visiting us at school, and I know a lot of the students have been telling stories about the mischief their elves are causing at home as well! You can see pictures of our class elf, Perriwinkle, and also some of the writing the students are doing!

Kennedy Thompson draws a picture of an elf to go with her story.

Perriwinkle came to our class yesterday! He brought a decorated tree with him!

We have started our new unit in math this week! We are focusing on measuring objects using non-standard units of measure. We have all traced our shoes, and we are working on measuring all of those. We are also measuring tape, and continuing to work on counting. See some pictures below to check out what we are working on during math workshop!
